Division of Software and Computer Systems

The Division of Software and Computer Systems (SCS) is part of the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. We are in the Department of Computer Science (CS).

Research areas

Data Science

Research on conformal prediction, machine learning, computational epidemiology, information network analytics and multi-agent systems.

Machine Learning and Computational Health

Data Science: Machine Learning

Research on algorithms and systems for data analysis, machine learning and data mining. We work in healthcare, drug development, climate research, vehicle maintenance and social networking.

Software Engineering

Software Construction and Analysis

We research Software technology for DevOps, advanced software testing, and novel techniques for automatic software diversification.

Distributed and Parallel Systems

Distributed and Parallel Systems

We develop large distributed systems and algorithms in data intelligent cloud services, big data and data analysis systems.

Network Systems

Network Systems

Our main research focus is making it easy to develop and manage key societal Network Systems that meet their objectives. Classic examples include: high performance, high reliability, and low-power.

Networked Systems Security

Networked Systems Security

We make networked systems trustworthy by shielding them and their users from attacks and abuse. Our research solving security and privacy problems..
